[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

Karim Mayfield has signed a contract to be a late replacement to fight Shawn Porter in the main event of Friday's "Premier Boxing Champions" card, according to Mayfield's longtime trainer, Ben Bautista.

With Ecuador's Erick Bone (16-1, 8 KOs) the other rumored candidate to replace the ill Roberto Garcia (36-3, 23 KOs), efforts to contact representatives from Premier Boxing were not immediately returned.

Bautista told BoxingScene.com on Thursday night via text that Mayfield (19-2-1, 11 KOs) will fly in from his hometown of San Francisco and must weigh in at no more than 149 pounds at 8 a.m. Friday morning. [Click Here To Read More]

This is actually a more competitive fight. Still think Porter wins.

intresting but I think its a bad clash of style, they both rush in like football players, try to smother and wrestle you on the inside, I predict a few vicious head butts.

Yes and they are good friends, which is awkward as hell.

Karim fights at 140 so he is going up in weight.
